Lol. So what you bought some used JK wheels? Didn't realize you needed adapters? Just resell them. Those 17" (18" ?) Diameter tires aren't cheap anyways. You could probably resell for what you got in them or even make some money. Then get some wheels that fit.
...or buy adapters.

Don't waste money on 3" spacers. Spacers on stock old *** springs suck. Same with shackles and stock leaf springs. Pay the price and do it right the first time. Spending double hurts. Trust I know. I wish I never did spacer and shackles 2 yrs ago.

Well i looked in my manual and i realized the torque specs were for the tcase plug.... but anyways the plug didnt get tight and then all of a sudden loose spinning. I tightened it, and it just got to a point where it wouldnt tighten more but would keep spinning. it didnt seem that tight though. Its not leaking as of now, and it seems its on there. Its not tight like it was when i first undid it, then again, this was probably its first tranny change, it looked like chocolate milk with a slight reddish tint lol
Im just confused on the drain plug replacement, are u supposed to replace it when u change tranny oil? I didnt see anything on how to replace it.

Is it okay to run tires that are worn uneven? My buddy has nice set of wheels with decent tires that I am considering buying but two are studded (hardly any stud left) and the other two are worn unevenly to one side. Would it cause any problems if I ran those tires? I was thinking I'd put the uneven ones on the back until they are close to even.

Let em go. Do it right. Figure out the build you want and why you want it for. After that you can fill the wheel wells up with something. Which rims you hve now???? People sell tires all the time
